.We.Are.Legends.
The Plot
This roleplay is based on the newly released movie, I Am Legend. However, you do not have to see the movie in order to understand this roleplay.
Once hailed as the cure for cancer, the disease-ridden vaccine has killed off nearly every being in the U.S., and around the World. Those who have not surrendered to such a fate have turned to the light of the sun to protect them during the day. The creatures seek out all traces of meat and blood and have lost all human-like qualities. They do not speak, they do not understand the human language, and they have no sense of feelings. They rely solely on instinct, just like the humans of the prehistoric era. These beings are relentless, but they are susceptible to UV rays like sunlight and therefore do not leave the shadows during the daytime.
You might wonder if there are even humans still alive after such an epidemic and the answer to that is yes. Only those who are immune to the cure-turned-disease. Those people live in fear of the creatures, hiding as best they can. The majority are alone in the world and this has drove some to the brink of insanity, some even over the brink. Their lives are mangled and they grasp onto what they can, only coming out during the day and being careful not to leave any traces of their blood or sweat to bring the creatures right to their doorstep. True, they cannot become one of the creatures, but they can still be feasted upon by them. And this is not a fate anyone still living hopes to achieve, despite all that has happened.
Some humans have adopted animal companions because while animals are susceptible to the virus, it is only through being bitten that they can truly contract it. The air-borne version of the virus has no effect on animals. Others are stubborn and cling to the hope they are not alone in this world. That they are truly not the last person on earth. That is the only thing keeping some going on with their lives, and continuing to hide on a day-to-day basis. In a world now as barren as this, it is rare to come across another being, even rarer more than one, but in a city as heavily populated as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and Houston once was, there was bound to be quite a few survivors and there is. They just have to find each other.
This is the year 2012, three years after the epidemic hit. Will this be the year everything is restored to the way it was before? Or will it be the year the world ends as was predicted by the Mayans long ago? The fate is in the survivors hands whether they believe it or not, so will you take the chance and try to save the world or do nothing and condemn it to stay what it has become?
